The globally renowned heist crime thriller series ‘Money Heist’ returns for its concluding installment, with the action, intrigue, melodrama, romance, humor, and tragedy that audiences have come to cherish.
Following the invasion of Tokyo (Úrsula Corberó) and Rio’s (Miguel Herrán) Caribbean sanctuary by the authorities, resulting in Rio’s capture, the Professor (Álvaro Morte) reunites the gang for another heist.
Their objective this time is the Bank of Spain and its gold reserves. As the plan is executed, a state of organized chaos emerges, modifications to the initial strategy are implemented, emotions intensify, and fatalities occur, notably those of Nairobi (Alba Flores) and Tokyo.
In ‘Money Heist’ season 5 part 2, the remarkable narrative of the contemporary group of criminals reaches a climactic end. Since season 3, the gold from the Bank of Spain has functioned as the central narrative element.
If you are inquiring about its status, whereabouts, or possession, this is the information you require. WARNING: SPOILERS FOLLOW.
What Happens With the Gold Stored by the Bank of Spain?
The Bank of Spain heist was initially conceived by Berlin (Pedro Alonso) and Palermo (Rodrigo de la Serna). The initiative was subsequently abandoned, and the Professor opted to concentrate on the Royal Mint instead.
After Rio’s capture, the Professor need a sufficiently prominent platform to compel the authorities to not only release him but also to grant freedom to himself and the others. Although intricate, the plan devised by Berlin and Palermo contained numerous flaws, which the Professor meticulously addressed and resolved until it was ready for implementation.
The workforce within the bank initially melts the 90 tons of ingots, converting the gold into microscopic gravel-sized fragments. The 120,000 liters of water contained within the vault serve as the impetus to convey the gold to a stormwater tank, where Benjamin, his team, the Professor, and Marseille (Luka Peroš) await its arrival. They remelt the gold and reform it into ingots.
As soon as all the gold has been reverted to ingots, the cops apparently come. Observing the presence of only four vehicles, Marseille and Benjamin’s team arm themselves; however, the Professor intervenes, seeking to prevent further fatalities resulting from his actions.
They are reportedly apprehended and confined within a police van, although around 20 minutes elapse without further developments. The Professor recognizes a significant problem and exits the van, only to find that all the gold has vanished.
It is disclosed that Berlin’s son, Rafael (Patrick Criado), and Berlin’s ex-wife, Tatiana (Diana Gómez), have stolen the gold. Similar to the Professor, his brother often conversed in bed, discussing plans with his then-wife.
Tatiana ultimately departed Berlin for Rafael, and they had been awaiting the opportunity to implement their plan together all along. Upon the commencement of the Bank of Spain theft by the Professor, Rafael and Tatiana engaged actively. They obtain a substantial workforce and a parcel of land.
After covertly extracting the gold from beneath the Professor’s observation, they interred it in the plot and established a portable dwelling above it, equipped with stepping stones, synthetic grass, and potted flora.
The Professor informed nearly all crew members, including Lisbon, that the gold was intended to function as leverage to extricate the bank personnel from the grasp of the police. The absence of it renders the situation dire. The situation deteriorates further when a member of Sagasta’s team disarms the explosives at all three access points, allowing the police and military to enter.
The bank personnel are subsequently apprehended. The Professor, lacking his anticipated negotiating chip, instructs Alicia Sierra (Najwa Nimri), now a complete part of the group, to locate the gold with Benjamin’s team.
He subsequently directs Marseille to mislead the authorities while he surrenders himself. Upon confronting Tamayo (Fernando Cayo), the Professor appears to possess an additional strategy. He informs Tamayo that the situation may culminate in only two outcomes – either they both achieve victory, or they both suffer defeat.
Who Owns the Gold at the End of Money Heist?
With the public disclosure of the heist, Spain precariously teeters on the brink of financial catastrophe. The Professor employs this as leverage to get a highly unwilling Tamayo to acquiesce to his conditions.
The latter is left with no alternative as the pursuit of gold has proven unproductive. The authorities have employed various methods — including intimidation, torture, and financial incentives — to compel the Money Heist team to disclose information regarding the gold.
No actions are effective as none of the crew members within the bank, including the Professor, possess any knowledge of the gold’s location. Rafael and Tatiana’s theft of the gold has unexpectedly proven to be advantageous.
Tamayo consents to liberate the crew in return for the gold. Upon arrival, the ingots are disclosed to be composed of brass, adorned with gold plating and imprinted with the crew’s distinctive Dali mask.
This is the Professor’s definitive work about illusions. The return of gold to the Bank of Spain mitigates the financial crisis. Spain does not utilize its gold reserve; therefore, the composition of the stored ingots, whether gold or brass, is irrelevant.
Tamayo is compelled to accept his defeat with resignation. The Professor is fundamentally and archetypically a thief. He never intended to return the gold to the authorities. Palermo acknowledged this and was the sole individual in the group who possessed this knowledge.
Simultaneously, Alicia discovers the location where Rafael and Tatiana concealed the gold. However, she activates the sensors installed on the property. A confrontation occurs between the two groups.
Alicia mitigates the issue by presenting Rafael with a note from his uncle, wherein the Professor presumably reiterates their familial bond. Rafael consents to return the gold, aware that he, Tatiana, and their crew will receive their portion.
Tamayo informs the media that the Professor and all members of his crew, with the exception of Denver (who is in police custody), are deceased. In actuality, they receive distinct passports and are accompanied out of the country.
The Professor employs the gold as a bargaining tool, compelling the authorities to consent to refrain from pursuing him and his gang. If they proceed, the veracity regarding the brass ingots will be revealed, resulting in another financial disaster for Spain.
In the final instance of observing the gold in Money Heist, Benjamin traverses the border into Portugal, transporting it within the previously mentioned mobile dwelling. It can be inferred that the 90 tons of gold will be allocated among the remaining members of the two crews, ensuring that none of them will need to work again.
